It can be a simple 30-30, AR, AK, nice bolt action...ect. In whatever caliber you want, with whatever optics you want.....money is not an issue.

Go.

If I am specifically going hog hunting, I carry 1 of 2 guns. An AR-10 for normal stand hunting for rapid re-engagement, or a Marlin lever gun in 44 mag for CQB hogs, from like a bow stand or spot and stalk.

FN-FAL. Does it all, with a bang. And AK-like reliability.

I have been particularly happy with a .45-70 Marlin 1895, even more so with night vision, but I think my ideal would be a semi-auto comparable caliber like maybe a .50 Beowulf, Bushmaster .450, or .458 Socom, but I am in no hurry to replace the Marlin. It performs very well. The other guns would just be a bit better.

Marlin 1895 in 45-70 will be my next purchase. With a low powered leupold scope one top. Those things just scream hog killer.

I had a 1895 and really liked it, but I was a bit off put by the trajectory and capacity. I sold it after a little research- sighting the gun in 3" high at 100 with 300 gr bullets pushing 1900 fps (pretty stout load) leaves it 8" low at 200 yds.

I love my 6.8. Ammo is high like KC said but it is a great hog round.

300 sav in a model 99 featherweight wearing a 1.5x5 vari x III.
I have one and it will put three pretty stout handloads shooting a 150 grain BT into an inch all day long.
It is about the perfect velocity to make a BT shine, and while it is just a tool, it is a cool tool.

My dream Hog Gun is an AR (either DPMS or LMT) in .308 with a silencer and Jager Pro Thermal vision optics. Laser and flashlight mounted as well.
